THE NEW YORKER trymen who knew Mussolini when-" "Signore," this waiter politely inter- rupted, "I was a friend of M ussolini. We served in the same company of the Bersaglieri. The same company? The same squad!" "Why," said Cameron, who loves coincidences almost as much as he ad- mires M ussolini, "this is a coincidence! " "He was," said the waiter, "the man on my left." "But then," cried Cameron, "you must-" "Signore, I shall never forget the twenty-third of February, 1917. One of our comrades was struck by a shot from a trench mortar, after the com- munication trench had been wiped out. Under full fire, Mussolini started to carry that poor fellow back to the first- aid station-and was himself hit. . . I have often wondered, Signore, what would have been the history of Italy if he had been left to die there." Cameron says he had a certain sense of confusion, like the feeling you get of having been, some time before, in the place you're now in-when all the while you know it's impossible that you should ever before have been there. He says he said, "But Mussolini wasn't left to die." And Cameron says the waiter said, "No, Signore-for I carried him to the first-aid station." Cameron says this <;onversation oc- curred while he was eating his antipasto and that he'd gone into the restaurant with a vigorous appetite. But he says that then and there his appetite van- ished. He says he got up and went out and as he stumbled to the curb, a beg- gar approached him. Cameron says that he thought he detec d an Italian ac- cent in the man's appeal and felt so dizzy that he hired a taxi to take him home. When he got in and gave his ad- dress to the driver, the driver replied, (( Si, Signore." Cameron asked, "Are you Italian?" "Si, Signore." Right there, Cameron says, he be- gan to feel worse than ever. "Urn," he said to the driver. "Hold on. I believe I'll walk home, after all. I guess I need the air." And he had just enough strength left to tip the driver a quarter and open the door and totter away up the street. -REGINALD WRIGHT KAUFFMAN .
